Jacob Martin was awesome at his job! We are satisfied with the service he provided on our clogged sink, he is a true professional. We had an appointment at 12pm but instead Radiant was able to come earlier at 8am. We will be reaching out to Radiant in the future! Highly recommend this company for your plumbing needs! Jeff Hicks swung by during the great freeze of 2026! We had a pipe burst under our mobile home and thanks to the Radiant Plumbing dispatch, we were able to get help from this professional gentleman. He was respectful, courteous, and went above and beyond his duties! Thank you guys, we highly recommend Radiant Plumbing for any emergency…rain, sleet, snow, they’ll be ready! EDIT 02/03/26: Shoutout to Garrett Beshears for helping us with a fitting that popped off in our mobile home’s foundation. Garrett not only provided spectacular service, but was also very informative about his repairs and addressed our questions knowledgeably. Radiant Plumbing once again proves to be a reliable company for your plumbing needs by sending in professionals like Garrett who takes great pride in their work! EDIT 02/19/26 Manuel was a stupendous technician who responded to a late night call regarding our bursted water pipe. Not only did he resolve the issue, but he also helped us identify other safety concerns regarding our water heater. Manuel is a professional in all aspects and his service reflects greatly on the credibility of Radiant Plumbing.

In a routine inspection of my sewer pipes, a break was discovered under the foundation of my home (I could see it myself on the camera). It was an expensive repair, but working with the Radiant team was a really good experience. The project manager provided consistent and timely communication and the onsite staff who did the work were thorough, professional, and provided outstanding customer service. I am 100% please and definitely recommend Radiant for any plumbing repairs.

After confirming that my existing water softener had a unrepairable leak I was provided a few quotes to have it replaced. After reviewing the quotes I opted to have Radiant install a new softener which they provided and after accepting the quote I was contacted within the same evening to schedule the install. Mike just finished up, gave a brief explanation (similar to my only units operation) and left the manual and ensured if I had any questions I could reach out. The old unit will be picked up and properly disposed of as part of the service, a major plus. Thanks to Mike and all of the Radiant team I’ve had the pleasure of working with thus far. I look forward to our continued relationship and feel at ease that I have them by my side.

The entire team at Rooter-Man is first class. Jason's initial work to assess the issue, give me best case and worst case options and be there every step of way was appreciated. Collen and Alan did a terrific job with the repairs. They worked a long day to get the job done in a day and it wasnt easy. They went above and beyond, replaced our shower drain to make sure sewer pipes connected correctly....they tested the entire system to make sure their job was complete and then spent time with me afterwards to explain what they did and give me some guidance going forward.

Roman Z. Great technician, funny and savvy. I would recommend his work to anyone booking with Reliant Plumbing. Came late at night for temporary fix for my family and followed through the following day for septic tank pump replacement.

Huge thank you to Reliant and especially Carlos for coming out during the 2026 freeze! He quickly diagnosed the issue and took the time to explain how I can troubleshoot it myself if it ever happens again. He was kind, thorough, professional, and right on time (and even reassured me that since our unit is under Reliant’s warranty, there was no charge for the visit). He also made sure all my questions were answered before leaving. Truly excellent service from start to finish!

Brandyn did an excellent job for us. Our sewer pipe clogged at midnight and we booked an emergency service. He arrived on time, worked quickly, and professionally, and made sure everything was working perfectly before leaving. He also explained the cause and future prevention patiently and clearly. Brandyn is friendly and reliable – we highly recommend him!

Ben and Ambrose were wonderful! They were super kind, worked quickly, and shared everything I needed to know in an easy to understand but respectful way. They also had suggestions for longer term upkeep but were not pushy about adding more work. I felt at ease with them in my home and am confident in the service they’ve provided.

We called for a quote. Had a great experience. Though we ended up doing the work ourselves to save money, we had them come out to look at hooking up the p-traps and new sinks in a few bathroom remodels. Ben was patient, knowledgeable and helpful. We will 100% call them again for any plumbing needs.

A persistent kitchen clog prompted clogged drain repair. The technician used professional tools to clear the blockage completely. Water drains smoothly now and there’s no unpleasant odor remaining. The process was efficient and the plumber explained how to prevent future clogs.

Waking up to no hot water was stressful, especially when you’re not sure what’s wrong. The plumber checked the heater carefully and didn’t jump to replacing things that weren’t needed. He found the actual issue, fixed it and explained everything in simple words. Hot water was back the same day, which was a huge relief.

We had a sewer line emergency at our place in Austin and needed a fast repair. The person at the service desk was very friendly and made scheduling easy. Bryson came out the same day to check out the problem and gave us a fair quote right away. Their prices were really good compared to others we looked at. Bryson also managed to fit us into the crew’s schedule quickly, and the job was completed within 24 hours. Trenton did the repair work and handled everything smoothly, making sure the job was done right from start to finish. He walked me through the completed work, which made me feel confident it was all up to a high standard. The next day, Bryson even called to make sure we were happy and that everything was working perfectly. We are completely satisfied and will definitely call again for any plumbing or HVAC needs in the future.

What a great experience! I found Taylor Brothers Plumbing & HVAC online when I needed help getting my main house drain and landscape drains cleared out here in Austin. Bryson showed up right on time and explained exactly what he would do before getting started. He handled both jobs quickly and finished everything in just a couple of hours. He was very professional, knowledgeable, and you can tell he really cares about doing a good job. I’ll definitely call again for any plumbing needs, and my wife, who works in real estate, plans to recommend them for future inspections. This is definitely a 5-star plumber!

We've trusted Taylor Brothers Plumbing & HVAC for all our plumbing and gas line needs for a long time. My family had plumbing issues in our Austin home that just kept coming back, no matter how many times other plumbers tried to fix them. When I took over the house, I called Taylor Brothers Plumbing & HVAC, and Bryson came out to take a look. He quickly figured out exactly what was wrong and really fixed it for good. Since then, our plumbing has worked great. When our hot water heater needed to be replaced, they handled it quickly and at a fair price. Most recently, we had a new heater put in and needed some gas line repairs. The plumber who came — Preston — was very professional and clearly knew what he was doing. He made sure everything was installed perfectly and explained what he was doing along the way. Now, our house is comfortable and we feel safe. From my experience, their team is always honest, skilled, and reliable. It's hard to find plumbers you can count on, but these folks are the real deal. I definitely recommend them to anyone in Austin looking for good, trustworthy plumbing work.

What a lovely experience with Neighborhood Plumbing and their tech Austin today. I called a few places, including our usual, and only Neighborhood was patient and accommodating with our scheduling conflicts. I received a text 20min before Austin arrived, and was greeted with a kind and professional attitude. Austin asked a few questions, diagnosed the issue (slow kitchen drain), and then provided a quote. No hidden fee. No trip charge. No service charge. Just a flat rate for the work to be done. He noticed something odd in the way our last plumber ran our drain, and offered to correct it as a courtesy. He was quick, professional, knowledgeable, and kind. I was happy with the service and will be using them again. Price and service was better than I expected.

Austin was wonderful. He was efficient and went above and beyond. I got three quotes to replace the water tank and chose Neighborhood Plumbing because the first company didn’t even come out, so they didn’t know my water pressure valve also needed replacing, and the second company tried to sell me on a lot of extra things, which was overwhelming. Neighborhood Plumbing was just right and was also price competitive.

I had a lot of water discharge from my water heater exterior drain pipe the night before the big freezes hit Austin toward the end of January. Turns out the T&P discharge line had been cut leaving a 4 inch gap. I rent so I wasn't aware it was a problem until the water discharge began. Having pipes burst in 2021, I was concerned it could happen again, but Tim assured me I'd be ok. Evan came and fixed the issue within minutes. I'd give him 10 stars if I could! He was courteous, professional and very knowledgeable. Great guys, great service and a very reasonable bill. I highly recommend them if you value honesty and fair rates. Thank you, Magic Plumbing!

Professional Drain Cleaning in Austin

Austin is known for its vibrant energy and rapid growth, but whether you are living in a historic bungalow in Hyde Park or a modern high-rise in Downtown Austin, a clogged drain can bring your day to a screeching halt. The Capital City's unique mix of older infrastructure and rapid new construction means plumbing needs vary wildly from street to street. Our service is designed to navigate this complexity for you, ensuring you aren't wasting time calling plumbers who are already booked across town. Our specialized process takes the stress out of the search. We don't just give you a list of names; we proactively filter our network of 15 local Austin professionals by your specific zip code. Once we find the closest match, we personally call them to verify they have a technician available to handle your specific drain emergency right now. Whether it’s a midnight backup or a slow-draining kitchen sink during a Longhorns tailgate, we ensure you get the help you need without the runaround.

Common Drain Issues in Austin

Hard Water Mineral Buildup: Austin’s water is notoriously hard due to the high mineral content from the Edwards Aquifer. Over time, calcium and magnesium deposits can create 'scale' inside your pipes, significantly narrowing the passage and making it easier for clogs to form.

Encroaching Oak Tree Roots: The majestic Live Oaks that define the Austin landscape, especially in areas like West Lake Hills and Tarrytown, have vast root systems. These roots often seek out moisture in older sewer lines, causing massive obstructions and even pipe collapses that require professional hydro-jetting.

Flash Flooding Debris: Austin is prone to intense flash flooding. During heavy Texas downpours, silt, sand, and organic debris can be pushed into external drainage systems and basement floor drains, leading to unexpected backups that need immediate attention.

Kitchen Grease in Older Neighborhoods: In established areas like North Loop or South Congress, many homes still utilize older cast iron piping. These pipes have internal rough spots where cooking fats and oils easily get trapped, leading to stubborn kitchen clogs that store-bought cleaners simply can't touch.

Seasonal Drain Maintenance Tips for Austin

Before the Spring Storms: Austin's spring season often brings heavy rain. Clear out your outdoor area drains and gutters now to ensure runoff doesn't back up into your home’s foundation or crawl space.

Protecting Pipes During 'Blue Northers': While Austin is generally warm, our sudden winter cold snaps can cause pipes to contract. If you have a slow drain, get it cleared before the temperature drops to prevent the standing water from freezing and cracking the pipe.

Summer BBQ Prep: With more home entertaining during the hot Texas summers, your garbage disposal works overtime. Avoid putting fibrous vegetables or heavy grease down the drain to keep your kitchen running during the heatwave.

Fall Leaf Maintenance: As the Live Oaks shed, ensure leaves aren't covering your exterior sewer cleanout or blocking street-level drainage, which can cause local water pooling and pressure on your home's plumbing system.

Average Drain Cleaning Costs in Austin

$145-$575

Pricing in Austin varies based on the severity of the clog and the equipment required. A simple snake service is typically more affordable, while hydro-jetting or main line clearing in Travis County may fall on the higher end of the scale.

Frequently Asked Questions about Drain Cleaning in Austin

How quickly can you find a plumber near me in Austin?

Because we filter our network of 15 local plumbers by your specific Austin zip code and call them immediately to verify 24-hour availability, we can often find a technician who can be at your door within a few hours.

Why shouldn't I just use a chemical cleaner on my Austin home's drains?

Austin's hard water scale reacts poorly with many harsh chemicals, which can actually trap the heat and damage older PVC or cast iron pipes common in TX homes. Professional mechanical cleaning is safer and more effective.

Do you serve surrounding areas like Round Rock or Cedar Park?

Yes! Our system uses your exact zip code to scan for certified plumbers across the entire Greater Austin area, ensuring we find someone close to your specific neighborhood.

Is 24-hour emergency drain cleaning available in Austin?

Absolutely. We specialize in verifying 24-hour availability. We do the work of calling the plumbers to make sure they are actually on call and ready to head to your location before we connect you.

What is the most common cause of sewer backups in Austin?

In many Austin neighborhoods, it is a combination of limestone buildup from the water and root intrusion from local trees. We find that verified local experts with camera inspection tools are the best way to solve these recurring issues.
